PEP Home Parent Encouragement Program

Mission

Our goal is the development of stronger, more encouraging families, through systematic education, skill training, and support.

Such families are characterized by positive energy and a sense of purpose.

These families inspire their members with courage, spirit, and hope, empowering them to contribute to others, to their community, and to the larger society.


The Parent Encouragement Program (PEP), Inc. is a non-profit educational organization for parents, teachers and others who want to deal constructively with children and teens. PEP is dedicated to the building and strengthening of healthy, harmonious adult-child relationships in the home or classroom.

All PEP services (classes, workshops, talks, library) present a practical, proven approach to childrearing based upon the Adlerian philosophy of mutual respect, shared responsibility, developing competence, and winning cooperation.

PEP does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion or national origin.

PEP's Core Classes

PEP l, ll, and lll form the centerpiece of PEP's class offerings. This step-by-step series is designed to provide the most crucial concepts and skills for effective child rearing. At each level, basic concepts are reinforced and expanded, and new information and skills are added. Parents acquire the basic tools and guided experience they need to function competently and confidently as their children grow and change. Students who complete PEP's Core Classes 'graduate' from PEP and receive a certificate of completion.
